Please join the Alameda County Democratic Party and Congresswoman Barbara Lee tonight as we stand together against the violence in Arizona, and here in our own community. Our thoughts and prayers are with Rep. Giffords, her fellow victims, and all the families affected by this terrible act of violence.

Please join us on this evening for a candlelight vigil organized by the East Bay Young Democrats with a long list of other community and political organizations.

Oakland, CA – The East Bay Community Foundation in collaboration with the Office of Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Oakland) has created a new Web-based resource guide to help East Bay non-profits and faith-based organizations search for federal funding being made available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The guide can be accessed at www.eastbaycf.org and at www.lee.house.gov.
